What is a Managed Account ?

As well as offering a free venue finding service at DeSouza Associates we can also offer a managed account service.  This involves solely looking after a companies conference, event and accommodation needs, from the initial enquiry to the post feedback.

Outlined below are the services we can offer after receiving an enquiry:  

• A venue search followed by a bespoke proposal specific to the enquiry which outlines key information such as room size, negotiated costs and savings etc
• Ongoing communication between the venue and booker to ensure that they have all the information they require
• Site inspection organised if required
• Confirmation to booker and venue
• We can check the contract and once it’s correct we send it onto the booker
• For ease, we organise payment on your behalf and then invoice directly from DeSouza Associates
• Feedback
• Management Information so you can easily view which venues and groups each booker is booking and total spend.

  We can do as little or as much from the above list- we will work with you to achieve your goals Managed Accounts are becoming increasingly popular.  We are able to offer our wealth of venue finding knowledge on every booking, negotiate rates on your behalf, organise payment on every booking (this saves time on credit checks and using company credit cards.) There are huge advantages in letting us take care of all your requirements.  It helps with budgeting and we are also able to provide Management Information such as savings over a set period, business placed in venues etc.
